It is possible to use Xcode for Python. Create an external build system project and enter the path to the Python interpreter in the Build Tool text field in the New Project Assistant. Xcode has support for Python syntax highlighting. I'm not sure if Xcode supports Python autocomplete.

You're better off using a text editor like BBEdit, Sublime Text, TextMate, or VSCode for Python. Xcode is designed for making apps in Swift and Objective-C, not for Python development.
